M42 Turbo No start

[TheRealE30kidd]

Just turbod my 1991 318iS. I havent put in the miller chip yet but figured it would start with a stock chip. I have 42lbs EV6 ford bosch injectors. what the sheit!?

[Reap3r]

As far as I know Motronic doesn't like anything over 30lbs injectors. If somebody who knows for sure could clear this up that'd be good. I've never looked into it personally, my turbo build has always been intended for standalone.

[MR 325]

Definitely not going to start with those injectors in there!

Doesn't that only apply for the m20. M30 and m50 allow larger injectors than 30lb with stock dme
What you have to do is do the usual checks. Does it have fuel or spark. Does it turn over. Did you put the chip in upside down

Well his car has an M42 and he specifically said he has not put the chip in yet.

Yeah I read that wrong.

only need air fuel and spark do you have each of them?

my buddy has a m42 turbo and he is running 36 pound injectors on stock DME with no chip, no 02 sensor, just running in limp mode & it runs fine pushing 8-10 pounds daily. Just highly adjusted mass air flow meter and he gets shit for gas mileage, but it still runs fine & hard. Why won't mine even start? I figure the difference between 36pound & 42 pound wouldn't make it not start.

Just went to install software for the miller chip on my computer and there's no selection for the 175 ECU type for the E30 M42. Tried calling Miller, got no answer. Any ideas??

[TheRealE30kidd]

Save your money, Reap3r. Don't go stand alone when we have this amazing war chip!!!!
If i can just get this damn thing to work for my 175 DME!!!! lol

[TheRealE30kidd]

o ya and has anyone put EV6 injectors in before? do they even work in my car? dont see why not?

[BimmerTim]

Email Miller. Way easier. They are good shit.

[TheRealE30kidd]

Just taked to Miller and hes updating wizard by tomorrow

[TheRealE30kidd]

Just checked my plugs to see if i was getting spark and im not getting spark!? what could have made it not spark now? I also did a stomp test and the check engine light will not pop up. It also worked before.

Did you unhook the ECU and not hook it back up..

It will turn over with out it plugged in?

just a question.. ?
